writing update
Feb. 8th, 2010 04:19 pmSo um, yeah, remember that whole plan to go into ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png) fic_rush with 10 prompts, and come out of it with somewhere around 10 short fics?

Ha ha ha ha ha, I am so funny.
Okay, I did manage one short fic. And it's a complete fic -- yay!-- although short, but it's one of those short fics that needs to be short, at least in my opinion.
But as for writing to the other 9 prompts, not so much. The prompts you guys gave me looked interesting, and then there were the ones I chose myself from the random pairings generator, but when it came to trying to imagine writing anything to them, it was a big fat blank.
However, as I said, I did write one story to one prompt, and I did write a drabble recently to another prompt, so at least the muse is waking up a little bit, although obviously she's still a little sleepy. Thank you to those of you who gave me prompts, and I'll keep them around, and if they do inspire me later, I will do something on them if I can.
On the bright side of fic_rush,![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png) primsong came and joined us and seemed to actually like it!  I still encourage everyone to come try it out next round, even if it's just for an hour or two.  It's a great feeling to get writing encouragement -- not to mention useful tips -- from others, it's nice to pass encouragement along to others, and if nothing else, it really teaches you the value of an hour.
